Hi,
Stocks were set for a sharply lower open on Tuesday as a revolt in Libya drove investors away from riskier assets and prompted a spike in crude oil prices.
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi used tanks, helicopters and warplanes to quell a growing revolt as the veteran leader scoffed at reports he was fleeing after four decades in power.
Libya's oil terminals were blocked and the prospect of further disruptions to oil supplies from Libya, Africa's third-largest producer, sent oil prices to a 2-1/2 year high.
